What Does 'Watch Intent' Mean?

[ SLANG ][ LIVESTREAM ][ NOUN ]

FORCE: Attention EconomyUNIVERSE: Streaming CultureCLUSTER: livestream

A signal estimating whether a viewer clicked in planning to actually watch versus just passing through, distinct from a watch session by measuring intent at the click itself rather than behavior afterward.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

"Watch intent looked strong going in, but the actual session collapsed within the first ten seconds anyway."

LORE & ORIGIN

Extends 'watch-session'/'watch-loop' with a predictive-intent framing, borrowing 'intent' from standard e-commerce purchase-intent language.
